Says Lagrange, "The shapes of this crystal vase begins with the specifics caracteristics of this material. Thanks to its heavy weight, the crystal allows few contacts with the surface as well as a stability of the vase."

"This way, Obice does not clutter any space, and thus enables a use in everyday life, on a desk for instance."

"The incredible transparency which magnifiyed the elements inside is used as a protection. Therefore, Obice becomes a container and also a cover which emphasises the beauty of flowers". Obice was designed by Romain Lagrange for Vista Alegre.
